I'm a bit behind on updating this thread and the complaints R mounting.

Last week sanded the concrete so the glue could get a better bite as per the manufactures tech support.

I put down the first 4 rows as an anchor so I can use the clamping system on the rest of the floor.

Since I like challenge I didn't just lay the wood length wise nooooo to easy it's on a 45 ...but I think it will make the room look bigger.

You can see a bunch of blue tape also. U clamp the wood tight with a strapping system then use 2" wide tape to hold it together until the glue sets up. move the clamps more tape.

The reason this floor isn't done is the distributor I was getting the glue from ran out of stock, late yesterday it came in, today with the help of two of my friends Andy & Rusty I hope to finish or almost finish.

more pics to follow.
